  • ๐Ÿ“š Cecile Richards Passes from Brain Cancer - ๐ŸŒฑ Her passing guts me. She comes from an incredible lineage of powerful women. Her mother, Ann Richards, was a badass Texas woman with big hair and no fucks to give. She was the last Democratic Governor before GOP gerrymandering trapped Texas. (Not a red state, a voter suppression state!) Both are reminders in how we continue to organize when it feels uphill.
  • ๐Ÿ“ธ How to Combat Lies from ICE - ๐ŸŒฑ It's very common for ICE to tell lies to gain entry into a home or get information about someone theyโ€™re targeting. Be on the lookout and learn how to respond. Follow @ykreborn They are a great resource for security tips.
  • ๐ŸŽ™๏ธ PornHub Exec Talks Censorship - ๐ŸŒฑ The adult entertainment industry is typically a harbinger for what's to come when it comes to censorship. Alexzandra Kekesi, VP of Brand and Community at Pornhub sat down with Sam Cole from 404Media to discuss age verification, algorithms, and the rights obsessions with suppressing sex. (see: our Comstock series)
  • ๐ŸŽฌ Steps to Sanity & Hope - ๐ŸŒฑ Manage your media consumption! I'm loving @sylvanaqua.farms energy in this video offering very practical tips for surviving the next few years. All values we love here!

๐Ÿฟ Donโ€™t forget to scroll to the end and watch our weekly video for activists where we dive into on a weekly news topic.
